A Randomized Phase II Study Of The Efficacy And Safety Of Sunitinib Malate Schedule 4/2 vs. Sunitinib Malate Continuous Dosing As First-Line Therapy For Metastatic Renal Cell Cancer (Renal EFFECT Trial)

Type of Study:

Interventional

Study Design:

Allocation: Randomized, Endpoint Classification: Safety/Efficacy Study, Intervention Model: Parallel Assignment, Masking: Open Label, Primary Purpose: Treatment

Outcome Measure:

Time to Tumor Progression (TTP) Assessed Using Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center (MSKCC) Prognostic Factors Model

Outcome Description:

MSKCC Prognostic Factor Model assessed as low(0),intermediate(1-2) or high(=>3) based on number of criteria present such as Karnofsky performance status < 80 %, Lactate dehydrogenase > 1.5 * Upper limit of Normal,Hemoglobin < lower limit of normal, serum calcium > 10 mg/dL;Time from first diagnosis of renal cell carcinoma to start of systemic therapy of < 1 year.TTP was time from start of study treatment to first documentation of objective tumor progression or death due to cancer.TTP was calculated as (first event date minus date of first dose of study medication plus 1) divided by 30.44.

Outcome Time Frame:

From date of randomization until the date of first documented progression or date of death due to any cause, assessed up to a maximum of 2 years
